As He Really Is?
In the vast stretch of country
across the top of the world —
Canada, Alaska, Greenland,
Scandinavia and Siberia — the
reindeer is the only animal of
its type (with the possible ex
ception of the musk ox) which
can thrive and multiply. As well
as hauling Santa’s sleigh, says
a December Reader's Digest
article, the reindeer is a valuable
economic asset.
At the top of the world the
reindeer is food, clothing and
transportation. Its hair is used
for mattresses, its tail for shav
ing brushes. The skin makes
parkas, mittens, trousers. Sinew
